I had a pin ship in from New York two years ago. Shipping was $425.00. It shipped with legs on. For me, legs on is the preferred way.
2 months ago I was quoted $475.00 to ship a pin in from Phoenix. 1000 miles. For that price I hit the road. 2 nights in motels and gas was still less than $475.00.
Around here, I have 4 Fastenals within 10 miles from me. These stores will not/do not furnish pallets.
If there is a pin in my area that you want I can help you out with buying it and getting it shipped but you will be using STI; I won’t do Fastenal unless you want to pay me a nice chunk for my labor; those Fastenal savings are not free.
